拍品專文

Johan Georg Schickler (1793-1843) was born in Bordeaux in a wealthy Prussian banking family who emigrated to Switzerland in the 16th century, first in Basel before moving to Mulhouse, Berlin and finally Paris. The family moved in the highest Parisian social circles acquiring the famous hôtel Crozat on the Place Vendôme in 1828 which they filled with works of arts and painting especially equestrian by Carle and Horace Vernet, Géricault, and Eugène Delacroix as the family had a passion for horse racing and hunting. Denière was a bronze maker retailing furnishings, chandeliers, clocks, candelabra, torchères and ornamental mantel clocks, established in 1804 by Jean-Francois Deninger (1774-1866) (called Denière) and François Thomas Matelin (1759–1815). Denière supplied the French and European courts such as Versailles, the Grand Trianon, Buckingham Palace, the Hermitage (St Petersburg) and the White House. From about 1849, the company was operated under the direction of Denière's son, Guillaume who was also a registered goldsmith, and continued to exhibit at Expositions and International Exhibitions throughout Europe and expand its prestigious clientele. Princes and kings figured among Denierè’s wealthy clients and Denière supplied important commissions to the Mobilier de la Couronne (mainly clocks for the Tuilleries), to Kisselef, the Russian Ambassador, and to Said Pasha, the viceroy of Egypt. Records shown that the firm was active until 1903.
